Senegal Sacks Manager Thiaw After World Cup Exit

Senegal's national football team, which underperformed at the 2026 World Cup, was eliminated in the round of 32. Following this outcome, the federation announced the termination of manager Pape Thiaw's contract.

Although Thiaw achieved significant successes during his tenure, the World Cup performance ultimately led to the decision. The search for a new head coach is expected to begin immediately.
